 The Single Notez 🎶:

Samples 🎵 “If I Were a Rich Man” (🎙 Topol) from 📽 Fiddler on the Roof

It’s pretty sick the way that Flo and the trap beat change up the flow from the introductory sample

I love the tone of Flo Milli’s voice; rises above the backdrop in commanding fashion here

In addition to the tone of her voice, I love the agility and confidence of her flow

A mix of melodic rap and un-pitched rhymes

Nice production work from Kenny Beats – he doesn’t have to do much, anchoring the sample with a tight trap beat

➖ While the brevity of “Roaring 20s” is nice (2:09), it would be nice if this banger were a bit more developed ultimately


 Memorable lyric:

“Stupid shit, it’s just a double standard
I made my own lane, and I took advantage (Flo Milli shit)
You can’t hate on pussy if it rule the planet (Yeah, yeah)
I just came in the game and I'm doin’ damage (If I was a rich man).” 

🔏 In Closing: Rapper Flo Milli impresses, exhibiting ample attitude over a Fiddler on the Roof sample on her short but sweet banger, “Roaring 20s.”

3.5 out of 5 stars
